The Eyes Have It

Tuesday I turned into TwoEyesDay (you have to say it really, really, fast) and we began by using sight on funny pictures of kids and coming up with captions for them. I encouraged the residents to look at the picture and add a caption to it if they could but otherwise just read it and hand it to the next person. The pictures traveled around the table many times. They were enjoyed so much they got passed on all day and I ended up taping them to a resident's door because she didn't want them to be thrown away.

 Later we did some simple sewing. Using the case that came with my sunglasses as a template we cut out two pieces of felt, sewed them together, and turned it inside out.

I thought we might be able to use a little inspiration so I came up with a playlist for us to listen to while battling with needle and thread. It included:
Smoke Gets In Your Eyes -The Platters       
Hungry Eyes   -Eric Carmen
